I just bought my 2012 honda shadow phantom and its freakin sick i drove a harley and all i got out of it was a sore back all though ur 08 doesnt seem to be any different than mine im sure there are differences like mine is fuel injected i think thats new to honda. good choice screw hd
tired of all these self proclaimed bikers telling somebody else what bike to buy,or which is the best. you ride what you wanna ride and everybody else out in the world will ride what they wanna ride. you too busy on here putting down somebody elses bike while your shit sitting in the damn garage!? you a BIKER,get on that shit and ride! what YOU eat dont make SOMEBODY else shit! like HD is the only bike manufacturers in the WORLD. all you so-called fake ass,hatin bikers,get a life man,for real!
nice bike kid,straight up. you spend YOUR money on what YOU wanna spend it on,wether it be an $20-30,000 Harley(then dump another $30g in it for looks and engine upgrade) or a $12-18,000 Honda,Suzuki,Yamaha,Kawasaki,Triumph,or whatever! a damn Harley dont make anybody no more a damn biker than any other brand. a true BIKER likes all bikes,...BIKES PERIOD!! a real RIDER "RIDES" his/her machine for the enjoyment of riding. damn what make it is! they may be so-called American,but not built to last!
What most people don't get is that with Harley riders....You guys aren't ride or die...Just weekend riders....You don't use your bikes as much as sport riders (ride or die) or Other owned bike riders do...Plus Harley bikes require more maintenance =/
i care more about the the looks, sound, and feel of it. If you actually read what i wrote, you would have caught that. Catching peoples eye is an added bonus. I doubt you get that many compliments on it when you take it out.
You look like a future pedo for starters. Instead of spending money on a honda, especially if you're gonna put money into parts, why not just spend a little extra money and get yourself a HD? They look and sound a whole lot better. I made the mistake of having a honda, and ever since I traded up and bought a 2010 harley fatboy lo, I've been getting multiple compliments on it everytime I take it out. You don't get that with honda
@terragyamaha along side with you (Terry) I for one have a nice 2001 Honda Shadow Aero that I just got and it has everything on it. Even when I had my Rebel everyone said that it was a nice looking bike and it as well had the 3 main acsessories. But my Honda Shadow has even more that just that. I don't care who you are, Honda has proven to have good inginuity and styles in motorcycles, and they accomplish far more that just bikes. There is/was an American Honda plant too. :P
@terragyamaha Lol, now that my buddy bought a harley I have to wait at stoplights with him every time it stalls out. They sure are nice bikes to LOOK at though. I'd love to have one in my living room. For the record @marler1985, I've had Harley owners compliment me on my 2009 Shadow.
@marler1985 Dude, you're just buying an image and a name without any substance. Harley Davidson is a overrated, over-hyped, over-priced, under-powered rattle trap. You're one of those lemmings that say, "I own a Harley and now I'm a bad ass cause I ride an American bad ass bike." Nope realize that the carb and other parts are now made overseas. Sucker!
Thx for the film , Really Nice Bike..I have to apologize for the obvious ignorance and lack of intelligence ( as proven by the words or lack of basic 6th grade grammer) of my fellow human beings who post "smack talking" on these films..
you have made a nice bike, now get on it and enjoy the ride.......Voo
In response to the stupid comments about the hyper-charger yes this bike is obviously hyper charged if you knew anything you would know that a hyper-charger is a simple and common mod and that it is clearly one of the things he showed in is vid. Leave your ignorant bitter comments at home with you.
hypecharged? fuck what ya talking about? you just done basic custom changes, like do you know what you talking about? they ain;'t got a choke? it auto?. yeah sorry i got one as well and yea they shit man.... sell it and get a real bike, and fuck you be lucky to get a ton out of it, lol that was so funny, i got to get of after 100 miles as me back aches so much, fuck been riding 30 od yrs and this is the worst bike ever, you want one buy mine, i've only done 800 miles on it, and it a yr old now
the hyper charger actually did nothing to improve performance. Were you got the improvement from was altering the pipes. Other commentors have said you re-jetted but I never heard you say that you did. I'm guessing you did as any good mechanic would tell you that it is essntial when doing these types of aterations. But with all that aside, ya still got one sweet ride there bro....yup...one sweet ride ;-)
I saw that you re-jetted. How tedious was it and could you get away with not re-jetting and if you didn't re-jet would the bike run crappy? I am thinking about getting a set of v&h slash cuts. Thanks, great vids.
Nice sounding bike and you did a nice job with it. what do you think you're getting for gas mileage now that you changed to the hypercharger/pipes? By the way nice ranger.

The bike looks good, man. I don't dig the saddlebags, but you have to carry stuff so I'm sure they are handy. Check out my '08 Shadow video.
